Corned beef is a brisket that has been cured in brine. The name comes from the coarse salt used in the brining process. Once cured the beef briskets are individually packaged for purchase. Simple oven baking is
all that is required to cook brisket, but many recipes slow cook the beef in liquid. These recipes are usually not difficult, as most dishes are popped in the oven, the cooking times are slow. The chances you will ruin one of these recipes
is very slim.
Corned beef and cabbage is a very popular traditional dish that has become a St. Patrick’s Day tradition. While the once a year holiday is celebrated with corned beef dishes, the salty beef is enjoyed year round. It is a staple at delicatessens,
where the meat is sliced thin and served piled high on rustic bread. The classic Reuben sandwich features it as a key ingredient. Smoking corned beef in a special spice rub produces pastrami, another deli favorite.
